- Anti Inflammatory
- Microbial function
The barrier function of the product is to create a protection layer between the environment and the skin, using wax and fatty oils. In addition there is a moisturising effect in this function.
Skin nutrition is important, so that the vitamins and other elements for healthy skin are readily available.
Some ingredients have been added that are known to improve the healing process. Healing occurs best when a barrier is established and the nutritional elements are also present
We look at ways to calm the immune response of the body using a combination of substances known for their anesthetic and anti inflammatory properties, without using steroids.
Microbial function is moderated with very mild anti-bacterial substances intended to settle the microbiome of the skin.
